NSNG Tips for Beginners

Do you struggle with sugar and carb cravings?  It’s been a huge problem for my whole life.  These steps made the transition to the no sugar no grain lifestyle so much easier for me.

CLICK HERE! for a NSNG checklist to get you started

    • Eat lots of fruit at first.  The natural sugar and carbs in fruit make the transition much easier.
    • Eat fat. Fat satisfies.  Try an avocado drizzled with olive oil, salt, pepper and lime juice for a snack.
    • Sip on bone broth.  The salt and other good-for-you qualifies help ward off headaches and other yucky feelings as your body adjusts to this new clean way of eating.  I love making my own in my Instant Pot.
    • Drink lots of water.  Lots.
    • Don’t go cold turkey.  Start out slow.  Reduce your sugar and grain intake over a couple of weeks.

    Could you have had the potatoes if you wanted to? Just curious!

    I really like crock pot meats. Shredded chicken/beef/pork kinds of things. So flavorful and easy to make. Omelets and salads too!

      Potatoes are high on the glycemic index, so the aren’t recommended, but I’m not saying anything is off limits. Just moderation. Off limits doesn’t work for me emotionally.

        Makes sense. I definitely get the distinction between off limits and moderation. I’ll choose certain foods only when it’s really worth it to me, which isn’t every day. That’s what makes it sustainable, right?!

          I know this is old, but someone might stumble here like I did and find it useful :)

          Potato’s are OK according to Vinnie, he just tries to limit them obviously.

            I also stumbled onto this, was hoping to get the NSNG checklist but it doesn’t seem to work anymore.

    For me I can’t eat white potatoes but I can eat sweet potatoes. I can’t remember where they fall on the glycemic index – I just know they don’t make my sugar levels do weird things like regular potatoes do.

    Omelets are my friend. Sliced tomatoes too. Though finding a good fresh tomato this time of year in my little corner of the snow belt is just about unheard of.

    I am 2 weeks into the Nsng lifestyle and have questions about what to eat to lose the weight, if there is anything g different from every other day. Also can you have a glass of wine or does that contradict what I’m trying to accomplish?
